I see; best of both world's hey?

Exactly! With my modeler’s license I am allowed to do that .

Just ordered some of the ATSF zebra stripe decals from Micro scale for my attempt at converting an Atlas S2 switcher to LAJ switcher of 70s/80s - was advised that LAJ might be slightly diferent to ATSF, but from several photos on the web, the number of stripes in each panel are correct - perhaps there might be differences in width of stripes(?), if so not too noticeable - and it'll do me

Hopefully a dash of weathering will distract the eye!!

Don’t worry, we are no stripe counters here . I am sure it will be a beautiful engine. With the zebra stripes you can’t go wrong anyway – one of the best paint schemes ever.

I made a little more progress on my warehouse. Tomorrow when the glue will have dried completely I will sand the corners and the I can go on adding details.
